Jeremiah 22:14-18

14that saith, I will buildH1129 me a wide houseH1004, and spacious upperH5944 chambersH5944; and he cutteth out for himself windowsH2474; and it is wainscoted with cedarH730, and painted with vermilionH8350.

15Shalt thou reignH4427, because thou viest with the cedarH730? Did not thy fatherH1 eatH398 and drinkH8354, and do judgmentH4941 and justiceH4941? ThenH227 it was well with him.

16He judged the causeH1779 of the poorH6041 and needyH34; thenH227 it was well. Was not this to know me? saith Jehovah.

17But thine eyesH5869 and thy heartH3820 are only on thine extortionH6233, and on the bloodH1818 of the innocentH5355, to shedH8210 it, and on oppressionH6233 and on violence, to do it.

18ThereforeH3651 thusH3541 saith Jehovah concerningH413 JehoiakimH3079 the sonH1121 of JosiahH2977, the kingH4428 of JudahH3063: They shall not lamentH5594 for him, Ah, my brotherH251! or, Ah, sisterH269! They shall not lamentH5594 for him, Ah, lord! or Ah, his glory!
